Stealing content directly from the Content Delivery Network (CDN) of legitimate content providers has become too easy. It is time for CDNs to join the fight against piracy, rather than turning a blind eye to the issue.

In a classic form of piracy, one of ...

Despite the close philosophy between content delivery networks (CDN) and named-data networks (NDN), no solution has realized a large-scale NDN-based CDN yet. In this paper, we void the popular belief that any NDN network can be expanded to serve as a ...

Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) have become indispensable to Internet content distribution. As they evolve to meet the ever-increasing demands, they are also facing challenges such as system complexity, resource footprint, and content security. In this ...

Quality of Experience (QoE) for the internet users has remained a matter of serious concern and a main focus in order to retrieve multimedia content. Video content distribution has greater impact upon QoE, which may be improved by using specialized ...

Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) enable the rapid web service access by meeting the client requests using the optimal surrogate server located at their nearby. However, the optimal surrogate server can suddenly be overloaded by the spiky ...

Cellular data sponsoring (CDS) is a traditional data sponsor scheme widely used in cellular video delivery networks, where content providers (CPs) bear the cellular data downloading cost for mobile video users (MUs), so as to attract more MUs and ...

The importance of IXPs to interconnect different networks and exchange traffic locally has been well studied over the last few years. However, far less is known about the role IXPs play as a platform to enable large-scale content delivery and to reach a ...

We proposed a CDN-based covert channel communication attack.We performed experiments on a commercial CDN to show that such an attack is possible.We discussed possible countermeasures against such an attack. Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) became an ...

To delivery static contents, Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) are an effective solution, but that shows its

limits in dynamic and large systems with centralized approach. Decentralized algorithms and protocols can

be usefully employed to tackle this ...

Today's Internet is dominated by HTTP services and Content Delivery Networks (CDNs). Popular web services like Facebook and YouTube are hosted by highly distributed CDNs like Akamai and Google. Understanding this new complex Internet scenario is ...

Resource Acquisition service is a network-based service that acquires sufficient resources to satisfy the application requirement. Set-top-boxes STB are good sources of resource providers delivering this type of service collaboratively. Unfortunately, ...

One of the most striking properties of the Internet is its flexibility to accommodate features it was not conceived for. Among the most significant examples, in this survey we consider the transition of the Internet from a reliable fault-tolerant ...

Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) deliver web content to end-users from a large distributed platform of web servers hosted in data centers belonging to thousands of Internet Service Providers (ISPs) around the world. The bandwidth cost incurred by a CDN ...

This paper deals with the design, the development and the usage guidelines of a novel Content Delivery Network library for the ns-2 simulator. Such library allows evaluating new application-level load balancing approaches, with special regard to ...

Abstract overlay networks have been considered enablers of efficient management for decentralized, large scale service deployments. A Content Delivery Network (CDN) is an example of service falling within this category. The result of our research is ...

The Internet has seen an increase in complexity due tothe introduction of new types of networking devices andservices, particularly at points of discontinuity known asnetwork edges.As the networking industry continues toadd revenue generating services ...
